School Closures

[Cougarfan13]

I thought this wasnt final for Jonesboro, so are they closing for good now?

... so instead of offering support to fix so-called broken school districts, they're just closed?!?! Students are then shipped off to other districts where overcrowding is no doubt a problem? That is strange thinking...

Too bad about Jonesboro if this is true.

No, they are good for now.
